Hello all,
trying to disable PS on ath5k (Linux 3.0) gives:
iw dev wlan0 set power_save off
command failed: Operation not supported (-95)
Is there any special magic required to disable power saving?
It seems to interfere with our amplifier...
?

Joerg
iw is 0.9.22, but I just found part of the answer myself. Controlling PS in
IBSS mode is not supported (I failed to mention the IBSS part in my previous
mail).
Question: Is any power saving going on in IBSS mode at all? I'm seeing lots
of Probe-Requests that I thought were related to PS.
?

Yes, that is the reason.
